I'm thinking that the poor won't be able to move, rich people won't have to, but moderately-prosperous folks won't find the state very attractive.

Bad schools, few government services. Seems like a recipe for a permanently under-performing economy.

@DrewDad,
This kind of idiocy is slowly shutting the nation down, not just Kansas. But Kansas seems to be in the forefront at the moment.

@DrewDad,
Good Golly, Miss Molly! This one sounds suicidal, but it is Kansas, after all.

This brain drain should stop in order for the state to have economical growth. The government should play an important part on this matter.
